Casino-goer wins millions on Valentine’s Day

Warnders was playing a “Wheel of Fortune” quarter slot machine at around 5 a.m. when he bet all nine lines on one spin. All three “Wheel of Fortune” symbols lined up on the machine and he won more than $2.5 million on only one spin.

According to the release, Warnders’ first celebratory call was to one of his two brothers to say, “I beat you!” The brothers had an ongoing friendly competition about who would achieve the status of millionaire first.

After the jackpot is verified by casino officials, the “Wheel of Fortune” meter will be reset at $100,000.
